Book Description
Excerpt from Jackanapes; Daddy Darwin's Dovecot; The Story of a Short Life I well remember how eagerly I devoured the Life of my favorite author, Hans Christian Andersen; how anxious I was to send a subscription to the memorial statue of him, which was placed in the centre of the Public Garden at Copenhagen, where children yet play at his feet; and, still further, to send some owers to his newly filled grave by the hand of one who, more fortunate than myself, had the chance of visiting the spot. I think that the point which children will be most anxious to know about Mrs. Ewing is how she wrote her stories.6 WE have not wings, WE cannot soar, Did she evolve the plots and characters entirely out of her own mind, or were they in any way suggested by the occur renees and people around her?
